Description
Initially, the beer was brewed by Roberto Giannarelli at home using minimal tools needed. After initial successes Roberto decided to invest and finally crown his dream shifting production to the historic former barn renovated ad hoc to accommodate new machinery and definitely give rise to La Petrognola Brewery. Between 2012 and 2013, the transfer takes place to the new site a few meters away from the previous one, but with very different spaces and possibilities for development.

Bottle picked up from a Wine Shop, on the southern edge of Lake Garda consumed at home, Attenkirchen, Sunday 6th October 2019 cooking Belgian Beef Carbonnade and listening to Elena Tonra from Daughter and her solo album Ex:Re. Pours dark amber, hazy with an off white head. Sweet and a tad boring, a touch boozy, malty, a little vanilla. Ok.
